Five Finger Death Punch - And Justice For None

[CureTheSane]

Picked up the new album.
So far so good.
Some songs more radio friendly than usual. Bit toned down which I like.

They do ballads well.
My wife says some of the songs remind her of songs from her stupid TV series Nashville.
Usually she compared a lot of European hard rock to Eurovision lol

I'll pass, don't care for the singer.  Plus the songs are pretty average except Blue on Black and Kenny Wayne Shepherd's original version is better, imo

Yeah, a friend of mine is into them and played one of their albums awhile back and it didn't click for me.  I'm always willing to give bands a try a time or two, so figured I'd listen to these, but unfortunately same results.  Thanks for sharing though

I heard Wrong Side Of Heaven and on the strength of that listened to more.
Happy to admit that it took some time.

One of those bands where a few listens is required.

From their catalogue I added 17 songs to my best of folder which isn't bad.

I do like the new album through.

FFDP seem to be one of those bands that really do split opinion. I remember the hype when they came out, then after that all I remember was people slating them.

It's kinda like Nickleback where it pretty much becomes the "cool kid" thing to hate on them, regardless of how you feel.

 

All that said, I never really saw the appeal in them in the first place.

Not my thing. I feel this belongs in "other" music thread not AOR/Hard Rock
